qtile 0.22.0

v0.22.0

on Python PyPI

Changelog:

• !!! Config breakage !!!
  • lazy.qtile.display_kb() no longer receives any arguments. If you passed it any arguments
    (which were ignored previously), remove them.
  • If you have a custom startup Python script that you use instead of qtile start and run init_log
    manually, the signature has changed. Please check the source for the updated arguments.
  • KeyChord's signature has changed. mode is now a boolean to indicate whether the mode should persist.
    The name parameter should be used to name the chord (e.g. for the Chord widget).
• features
  • Add ability to draw borders and add margins to the Max layout.
  • The default XWayland cursor is now set at startup to left_ptr, so an xsetroot call is not needed to
    avoid the ugly X cursor.
  • Wayland: primary clipboard should now behave same way as with X after selecting something it
    should be copied into clipboard
  • Add resume hook when computer resumes from sleep/suspend/hibernate.
  • Add text_only option for LaunchBar widget.
  • Add force_update command to ThreadPoolText widgets to simplify updating from key bindings
  • Add scrolling ability to _TextBox-based widgets.
  • Add player controls (via mouse callbacks) to Mpris2 widget.
  • Wayland: input inhibitor protocol support added (pywayland>=0.4.14 & pywlroots>=0.15.19)
  • Add commands to control Pomodoro widget.
  • Add icon theme support to TaskList widget (available on X11 and Wayland backends).
  • Wayland: Use qtile cmd-obj -o core -f get_inputs to get input device identifiers for
    configuring inputs. Also input configs will be updated by config reloads (pywlroots>=0.15.21)
• bugfixes
  • Widgets that are incompatible with a backend (e.g. Systray on Wayland) will no longer show
    as a ConfigError in the bar. Instead the widget is silently removed from the bar and a message
    included in the logs.
  • Reduce error messages in StatusNotifier widget from certain apps.
  • Reset colours in Chord widget
  • Prevent crash in LaunchBar when using SVG icons
  • Improve scrolling in Mpris2 widget (options to repeat scrolling etc.)
